WINE DESCRIPTION

Jip Jip Rocks Shiraz is a premium wine produced by the renowned Australian winery, Jip Jip Rocks. This wine is made from grapes grown in the Padthaway, which is known for its unique soil composition and cool climate. The vineyard features a combination of limestone and terra rossa soils, which impart a distinct minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a full-bodied Shiraz with rich flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla. Its smooth tannins and balanced acidity make it a perfect pairing for grilled meats and hearty stews.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Jip Jip Rocks Shiraz is a full-bodied, concentrated and complex wine with intense aromas of blackberries, blueberries and mocha.The palate is brimming with juicy blackberry and blueberry flavors, balanced by a fine tannic structure. The finish is long and persistent, with hints of pepper and spice. A great expression of the region, this is a wine that will reward those who take the time to enjoy it.
